Three point masses , and are placed at the vertices of a right-angle triangle of sides , and , as shown in the figure. The centre of mass of the system is

- Aright and above mass
- Bright and above mass
- Correct answerCright and above mass
- Dright and above mass
Solution
Let us assume that the origin of the coordinate system is at the location of mass, then

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
